Books like He Must Like You by Danielle Younge-Ullman

In her final year of high school, Libby struggles with financial pressure as her older brother has vanished with his college money and her father insists she pay for college herself before driving her out after she graduates. She works at The Goat, a local bistro, where a serial harasser among the regulars pushes her limits. A drunken hookup with coworker Kyle leaves her confused. When the harassing patron finally crosses a line, Libby lashes out by pouring sangria over him, an act that catches the attention of the restaurant’s most important customer and a key figure in her family’s business. The fallout forces Libby to find an apartment, manage the fallout with her parents and the restaurant, and reckon with her growing anger toward those who have let her down, while a new crush blossoms on a colleague who truly understands her.
